CORN
QUESTION:
How
was
corn
introduced
to
the
New
World?
ANSWER:
When
the
first
two
men
Columbus
sent
ashore
In
the
New
World
returned
to
the
ship
they
told
of
finding
a
new
grain.
That
was
corn.
Until
that
time,
no
one
in
the
Old
World
had
heard
about
corn
or
anything
like
it.
There
are
no
words
for
it
tn
any
of
the
ancient
languages.
But
corn
was
being
grown
throughout
the
New
World
when
each
section
was
first
explored
by
adventurers
from
Europe.
Obviously,
corn
is
a
product
of
the
New
World,
but
scientists
can't
agree
where
it
was
first
grown.
They
say
It
originated
at
least
2,000
years
ago.
Some
say
it
came
from
Central
America,
others
believe
South
America.
FOR
YOU
TO
DO:
Corn
is
used
in
many
different
wa-t,
Make
a
list
of
as
many
ways
that
you
can
think
of,
then
compare
it
with
the
list
in
an
encyclopedia
under
"corn."
